Wichard MXEvo Friction Block with Captive Pin Shackle

MXEvo is the new generation of one-piece Friction Blocks developed by Wichard.

Designed to be used with heavier loads, with low rope movement speed.

As such, it is the perfect solution for use as a mast foot block, halyard tackle, barber hauler, block and tackle, sheet return, large sail foot, etc.

Thanks to the leash, this MXEvo version can’t lose its pin while opening, manipulating and closing the block.

And, the rope is kept "on track" thanks to the fins.

The pin is forged in high-resistant 17.4PH stainless steel.
